Jose, you ever ride that at night?

Lou, bet you'd love trying out a belt fed. 400 yards... hell, forget a scope just watch where the bullets hit and adjust. Great for moving vehicles, but I only got to do that once.

Oh yeah. I sure have. I've had to stop and clean my helmets visor. Another thing you realize while riding the trail at night is just how big and tough some bugs are. They sound and feel like BB's hiting you.
LOL!!!
By the way. Second place for highest concentration of bugs goes to Okeechobee Rd (US 27).
